The AR9132 SoC __always__ use one external oscilator. So it's reasonable
to have the first mention of extosc in ar9132.dtsi not in a board file.
This description style is always sync with hardware.
On the other hand pll-controller is always part of the SoC
not a part of a board. So pll-controller on extosc dependency
have to go to SoC dts file not to a board file. In your dts description
pll-controller is a part of a dts board file.

It looks like my previous device tree structure proposal contains a small error
(extra clock-frequency field in ar9132.dtsi). I have fixed it. Please comment it.

ar9132.dtsi:
============

	extosc: oscillator {
		compatible = "fixed-clock";
		#clock-cells = <0>;
	};
...
	ahb {
		apb {

...

			pll-controller@18050000 {
...
				clocks = <&extosc>;
...



ar9132_tl_wr1043nd_v1.dts:
==========================

...
	&extosc {
		clock-frequency = <40000000>;
	};
